It turns out I was able to do the job seeker report for free too under the research tab. Where we live it would be likely to be offered about $22.50, but my wife seems to have made a good impression where she did her clinical work in the best hospital in the region and they might pay a little better than average.

My wife is graduating as a BSN on Sunday. Recently a friend told me a low number like that so I started searching. Finding reliable data has been difficult, but I finally found data that is updated quarterly by the National Association of Colleges and Employers which stated the average starting pay for a graduating nurse is $52,800 as of April this year. While they do sell more detailed products, that gives me some peace of mind that if that was broken down it's slightly over $1,000/week $25+/hr (if averaged at 40 hours a week) and it has gone up about $600/yr from their last report. This same source was quoted on CNN.com and this is specific to 4-year grads. From the public (free) report: HEALTH SCIENCES While engineering students are the highest-paid, students majoring in the health sciences saw the largest overall increase to their average starting salaries, which bumped up 9.4 percent to $49,713. Fueling the increase was not only the fact that nursing salaries rose 4.3 percent to $52,800, but also that general health sciences majors salaries rose nearly 20 percent to $45,200.
